Dratkin124Thu, 23 May 2013 05:07:05 +0000http://www.gamefront.com/?p=222033#comment-355258I have always been a huge fan of Microsoft, Xbox, Windows, the whole nine yards. I still to this day play my original Xbox. I am playing Knights of the Old Republic right now. That said I just cannot see me buying this system. It breaks my heart to say this but I am unlikely at least in the near future to buy this thing.
It is funny. I use my 360 almost exclusively for games and the PS3 for entertainment and some games.
This generation they are going to flip flop. PS4 mostly games Xbox One mostly TV.
Don't get me wrong the "ONE" is cool for controlling all of your TV channels but a console for me should be centered at least 90% around games and games only. I think that to me the PS2/Original Xbox generation are and will likely always be the greatest Console generation of all time.I have always been a huge fan of Microsoft, Xbox, Windows, the whole nine yards.

THIS is the high quality hard hitting conveying of truths I come here for. I won't insult myself by commenting on Microsoft any further, though. And why do it! You all are saying everything I could possibly add! I wish every news site was like Gamefront :).Gamefront, I salute your Journalism.

MattWed, 22 May 2013 14:20:06 +0000http://www.gamefront.com/?p=222033#comment-355011Whoever's leading the Xbox One project at Microsoft needs to issue an immediate gag order, and make sure no one (and I mean no one, regardless of their position in the company) speaks to the press or the public about the system until they actually know what they're talking about. Because otherwise you get situations like this, where Microsoft now has to devote resources to damage control rather than pumping up their new system in the lead up to E3, because even they have no idea what their new system can and cannot do. After twelve years in the home console market, this level of ineptitude is inexcusable.Whoever’s leading the Xbox One project at Microsoft needs to issue an immediate gag order, and make sure no one (and I mean no one, regardless of their position in the company) speaks to the press or the public about the system until they actually know what they’re talking about.

Have you somehow missed his infinite body of other comments that play devil's advocate for the sake of attention-seeking and winding people up? He's not a legitimate commenter. I appreciate you're trying to be diplomatic but all you're doing is giving him more incentive to continue spamming the site with BS. You should be actively looking to remove his invalid contributions from the site instead of reinforcing them like this.@Ross – why are you apologising to lol the troll?

so in the future console :
.Ps4? i'm waiting at least one year after launch to see where it'll be gone (remember the discripancy beetween PS3 at launch, and PS3 now...)
.Steam Box ? I already have a pc (midly one) so no.
.Other ? mmmm....Oh and i forgot : with all this, it’s sure i won’t be buying a xbox one. at all. Even if it’s offer to me, i’ll resell it asap.

What we'll see, i think, is that beetween game wich won't need the "one by day connection" and those who'll need "always on connection", the consumer 'll need to be really attentive (just a microscopic line on the box ?)...WARNING!

They aren't going to say it if they can help it. It sounds like PC DRM, the disk is just the install medium, a key will be tied to an account, the account can move to any device. The real question is how screwed is Gamestop's business? Microsoft is just the messenger, its the dev/publishers that want this. Will they try and implement some kind of online auth/deauth of keys with fees to make the used game market work? Who takes the hit...gamestop, lol! I can see how trading a game with your buddy works, but $5 or $10 off a used game at Gamestop isn't going to cut it with activation fees.LOL…that first guy is screwed, dropping a bomb like that, hope he’s got an updated resume!

R.J.Wed, 22 May 2013 06:41:15 +0000http://www.gamefront.com/?p=222033#comment-354834Note to MS: if you don't have actual details on a specific aspect of your machine to share, don't discuss them at all. Potential scenario or not, there is now a decent amount of rather bad sounding information floating out there, and having to do damage control for an executive on announcement day just makes things look worse. It's not like there wouldn't have been time to rehearse what was going to be discussed and what was not. People might get frustrated about a lack of information, but saying, "We're not ready to talk about that" is a lot better than saying something and then trying to take it back.Note to MS: if you don’t have actual details on a specific aspect of your machine to share, don’t discuss them at all.

I seriously cannot believe Microsoft is going to shoot themselves in the foot like this. This is a MASSIVE mistake.
Now, off to IGN to see how they spin all this as if MS is doing us a favor and all these features are the greatest thing ever.I got up about 20 minutes ago and this was practically my first stop because I wanted to know all about the Xbox reveal.

MichaelTue, 21 May 2013 21:52:00 +0000http://www.gamefront.com/?p=222033#comment-354620There is a slight mistake at the end of this article: Microsoft said that there would be 15 exclusive titles WITHIN the first year of its launch, not at the time it comes out.
Anyways, this presentation really didn't do anything for me. Sony is looking much better this time around in my opinion.There is a slight mistake at the end of this article: Microsoft said that there would be 15 exclusive titles WITHIN the first year of its launch, not at the time it comes out.

I think that might be the case. At least so far Sony hasn't said anything that makes me say, "Wait a minute."@Swcloud
